90 - CL SBC

4.0

One of the better SBCs this year

By JWNYsg, 17-04-2019

Was actually apprehensive as wanted to save 120-150k coins at first. But then saw it could be done cheaper so i thought, just do it

i mean, compared to the Robben Premium SBC, this or the Ramsey one is far easier to obtain

Let's get to it, i play a traditional 4-4-1-1. Put Karim at CF with Hawk chemistry, which is similar to my main squad and the position is taken by Mandzukic.

I found them quite similar other than Karim's M / M work rate. He scored goals for me, created chances, held up play well to support the counter attacks

Used him in the weekend league and did well for me, Div 5 player, finishing Gold 3. In fact i rotated my sole strikers from Carniball Inaki, SIF Suarez and ended with UCL Live Griezzy.

Glad i did the SBC, i now favour Karim playing in this La Liga team of mine

Much better than the UCL Live card
People talk about the Defending stat lowered, but didn't really affect my play much
Good with head and both feet

Not the fastest card but can mitigate with Hunter or Catalyst chem
M work rate bothers me as i like players who hustle the ball

Benzema:

Trust me. Get this card. I have only played 6 games with him but in division 1 of division rivals and I tell you, he is something else. I have previously tried UCL TOTGS griezmann, aguero, etc. He is a combination of these two on steroids. I have scored 15 goals with 3 assists. Incredible finishing. Brilliant long shots. Decent Dribbling. Surprisingly good passing. Good enough physical (scored 3 headers). To be fair however...

Benzema? WOW!

When I first saw these cards I needed to have one. The card art is probably one of the best I've seen. I bought Benzema or 130,000 and it was worth every coin, when I first saw this card the first thing that came to my mind was "Why Benzema?". IRL I think Benzema is grossly overrated but for a special card that upgrades every stage Real gets to is 100% worth the coins. He is probably one of the most fun strikers that I have...

End game playmaker

So your main question is: is he worth doing? My anwser would be - of course. For around 120k you are getting an end game player rated 96 on CF with maestro chem. style. I managed to lower the cost of Benzema with some untradables to only 40k. First thing I did was moving him to a CAM role in a 4-3-3(4) tactic. The main aspect I directly noticed was his ball control - it is like he has a glue on his feets. Because of that he...
